4.2 Creating the trip Database

Create a database for use by the application:

$ sudo -u postgres createdb trip --owner=trip --locale=en_GB.UTF-8

If the default locale for the database does not match the running user’s locale, e.g. en_GB.UTF-8, specify the locale when creating it. E.g.:

$ sudo -u postgres createdb trip --owner=trip --locale=en_GB.UTF-8 \
  --template=template0
